Hi everyone, my name is Holly. Thank you so much for visiting my page and supporting my small independent business. Since a young age, always been interested in art. I started off using a simple pencil and paper making sketches and doodles. I particularly explored fantasy and gothic art, for me it is a place I could really explore my visual imagination and create a story. You can create your own worlds, your own make believe, and translate that to paper. I then began to explore with a paintbrush and acrylic paints, it never really spoke to me before as much as the pencil did. Eventually I grew to fall in love with it, and now always grab the paintbrush first. It is a great love of mine, a passion that brings happiness and makes me feel complete. I developed my own style of that gateway between realism and fantasy. I love using different textures to create movement and depth, I explore both semi-abstract and contemporary, as well as nature and animals. I have a great respect, compassion and love for animals and hope this translates into my paintings, especially animals which are endangered or misunderstood. I also find excitement in exploring fantasy, my own worlds of imagination where I can create a story that I hope speaks to others and draws in their imaginations and allows them to connect. 

I decided to bite the bullet and turn my passion into a dream of starting my own business which I hope all can enjoy and some of my work may speak to and connect with someone. Having a chronic health condition makes finding work feel impossible at times, so taking this risk and independently creating a small business for myself feels like a mountain, but it is one where I feel excitement and anticipation. I hope it may inspire others to do the same and take a leap of faith in doing something they love. 

Please do take a look at my portfolio where I have artwork for sale, and previous paintings I have done. There will be more paintings for sale continuously added. Thank you so much for choosing my small business and I look forward to growing together and hopefully turning my dream into a reality. Please feel free to contact me via the email or instagram link in the contact information.
